Despite arriving almost a decade after the previous installment, Now You See Me: Now You Don't has topped the global box office this past weekend, leaving highly anticipated releases like The Running Man behind.
With Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher, and Dave Franco reprising their lead roles, the threequel has grossed $21.3 million in the US only, with $54.2 million coming from international markets like China and South Korea. That means the film has earned $75.5 million globally so far, becoming the number 1 movie right now. It still hasn't passed the $90 million that it cost to produce it, but it might during its second weekend.
While Now You Don't is soaring, things are not looking as positive for The Running Man – the Stephen King adaptation starring Glen Powell underperformed on its release weekend with a disappointing $29.2 million global launch, which is dangerously far from its reported $110 million budget.
Directed by Edgar Wright, the film – which has plenty of Stephen King Easter eggs – follows a televised contest where contestants must outrun a team of expert killers ruthlessly hunting them down for 30 days to win the life-changing jackpot.
